The West London line (WLL) is a railway line in inner West London that links Willesden Junction in the north to Clapham Junction in the south. The line has always been an important cross-London link, especially for freight services. Southern and London Overground provide regular passenger services; detailed below.

In November 2024, the London Overground service on the line was named, along with that on the North London line, the Mildmay line (to honour the Mildmay Mission Hospital which treated victims of the HIV/AIDS crisis in the 1980s) and coloured light blue on the Tube map.
